Rules for Jig Tying

[rezz93]

There's not really any official rules but I've got one to add to my list :

1. Wait for the glue to dry

[rezz93]

Feel free to add your own rules:

2. Do NOT whip finish around the hook eye.

3. Check that everything is where it's supposed to be BEORE applying glue.

4. Do NOT exceed the breaking strength of the thread.

5. Do NOT glue your fingers to the jig head.

Me and glue have a rocky relationship at times.

Sounds like you need to invest in a head cement applicator bottle for precision use.

Mostly its due to violating rule one and then touching the head.

I've been using Krazy Glue brush on and like it pretty well.
That head applicator is needed at times for sure and has crossed my mind. Later maybe.

Glue and feather bits can be very festive on one's fingertips

Definitely do not lick fingers if using superglue,,,,

Put the glue down, no need for it. Lol

If you think the glue is dry, wait longer.

Yet it will dry instantly when it contacts the moisture in your fingers

I thought of a good one earlier.....but forgot.
